Sorry I can't answer that but I am going to speculate. I have noticed the holes in the stock frame just in front of the but. I like you think Excalibur is well aware of the need for a cocking device to assist those of us who use crossbows as we get older to continue in the archery sports. I still think this is what they are bringing to the ATA show this year, I am holding out buying the Micro now, to see what they are going to introduce at the show, I sure hope I'm right,,,, I am still waiting for Ruger to introduce a 5 shot 480 Blackhawk, that I knew was coming 10 or so years ago, hope this time they oblige me with my wisdom. Kinda be nice to see it on a 360 in Treestand camo also?????? Life is all about dreams..... :wink:

Yes, I tried cocking one and it was a deal breaker for me. Wish they could strike a deal with Tenpoint and have an accu-draw that would work on it. Patience, patience, PATIENCE. :D

I talked to Dave and was told he uses the accudraw on his 380 conversions and that is the max TenPoint told him the gut's were good for, which is 10# lighter than the Micro,,,,, I would sure hate to have 265 lbs on it after using one a while and have it let go!!! He said the sled and string are good for the extra weight, but the insides are not mechanically strong enough. I'm praying the holes are what I think they are, whatever they are for their has to be an accessories they are waiting for???/

The rumor I heard is that a new crank will be coming next fall and not at this ATA. I guess we will see. The C2 crank will work on the Micro though.
